A method of securing a core of an electromagnetic device to a housing assembly is provided. The core includes a stack of a plurality of laminations. Each of the laminations has a plurality of apertures extending therethrough which cooperate to define a plurality of apertures through the core. The core has generally planar ends. The housing assembly includes first and second housing portions constructed and arranged to receive the core. Each housing portion has first and second opposing surfaces with the first surface defining a generally planar contact surface. Each housing portion includes a recess extending inwardly from the contact surface and a plurality of apertures extending from the first surface to the second surface. The apertures in the housing portions are disposed at locations corresponding to locations of the apertures in the core. The method includes arranging the core between the first and second housing portions such that the apertures in the housing portions align generally with the apertures in the core. A fastener is then inserted through each of the apertures in the first housing portion, through each of the apertures in the core and through each of the corresponding apertures in the second housing portion in such a manner to secure the core to the first and second housing portions planar end.

An electromagnetic actuator for an internal combustion engine includes upper and lower electromagnets each having first and second opposing sides. First and second spacers are provided. The first spacer is connected to the first sides of the electromagnets and the second spacer is connected to the second sides of the electromagnets such that the electromagnets are disposed between the spacers. The spacers are constructed and arranged with respect to the electromagnets to define a space between the electromagnets. An armature is mounted for movement in the space between the electromagnets. A stamped steel housing is connected to the first and second spacers. The housing is constructed and arranged to mount the actuator to a structure.

An electromagnetic actuator is provided and includes upper and lower electromagnets. Each electromagnet includes a lamination core assembly comprising a plurality of individual stacked laminations. Upper and lower housings are provided, each having opposing end walls. The core assembly of the upper electromagnet is disposed between the end walls of the upper housing and the core assembly of the lower electromagnet is disposed between the end walls of the lower housing. An armature is mounted for movement between the core assemblies. Spacer structure is disposed between the core assemblies and contacts each of the core assemblies to prevent the core assemblies from moving towards each other. A pin provides a connection between a lamination core assembly and the end walls of an associated housing. Each housing has a contact surface between the end walls and each of the core assemblies includes a solid core member defining a central portion of each core assembly. Each of the solid core members is secured to a contact surface of an associated housing via at least one fastener.

An electromagnetically actuated valve is disclosed. The valve includes an upper electromagnetic element and a lower electromagnetic element in a mirrored and facing relationship to each other. The electromagnetic elements define a central channel that surrounds a vertical axis. The valve further includes an armature element that is disposed intermediate the upper and lower electromagnets. The armature element is pivotally mounted to an armature shaft. The armature shaft is perpendicular to the vertical axis. The valve further includes a coil disposed within the central channel of each of the electromagnetic elements.

An improved electromagnetically actuated valve is disclosed. The improved valve design includes a layer of structurally stable, non-magnetic material, preferably Kapton or Chrome, disposed intermediate the core element and the electromagnetic element of the valve, and a core element and electromagnetic element fabricated from a high electrical resistive iron material. The layer of non-magnetic structurally stable material and high resistance core element serve to eliminate the hysteresis effect in the magnetic force of the valve. The core element may also include radially extending or axially extending perforations through the core element. The axial and radial perforations serve to reduce the weight of the core design and the axial perforations serve to reduce the effect of the air spring created in the gap as the core element approaches the electromagnetic element during operation of the valve.

A fuel injector has a fuel inlet, a fuel outlet, and a fuel passageway extending along an axis between the fuel inlet and the fuel outlet. The fuel injector comprises a body, an armature, a spring, and a spring stop. The body has an inlet portion, an outlet portion, and a passage disposed between the inlet portion and the outlet portion. The armature is disposed within the passage and is displaceable along the axis relative to the body. The spring is disposed within the passage and applies a biasing force to the armature. The spring has a first end disposed proximate the armature and a second end opposite from the first end. The spring stop is disposed within the passage and has a first and second portion. The first portion includes at least one projection engaging the passage. The at least one projection extends obliquely with respect to the axis and in a direction general toward the inlet portion.
